Jet with President GW Bush makes emergency landing
 Source: OWH-AP

DALLAS (AP) - A private jet that had former President George W. Bush on board made an emergency landing after the smell of smoke was reported in the cockpit.

The Federal Aviation Administration on Sunday said the jet was flying Saturday night from Philadelphia to Dallas, where Bush lives, and was diverted to Louisville, Ky. No one was hurt.

Bush spokesman Freddy Ford was on board and said the plane continued to Dallas after a brief stop. He said he never saw or smelled smoke.

1. What the hell was he doing in Philly?

I thought there was a stench in the air yesterday.

2. Playing golf, according to the article

It's one of the few things he does well.

7. Was it sulfur?

Pity the plane didn't have to land in a country that would have taken the opportunity to grab Bush and send him to The Hague.
Be careful what you wish for.

14. I was raised learning that to say "hate," is a strong word:

I don't care.
I hate the mega-rich.
I've been pulling my belt in because I've been unemployed for 9 months, and this clown can fly a thousand miles to play golf—or more likely, to make plugs for some awful GOP scheme (that we'll hear about in the coming months).
Hate.
Hate.
Hate.
Obama is no better.

Dude is unemployed for the last 9 months while owebuma is president. Then dude blames it on Bush. Lib logic.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Hey, DUmb****--who's been the President for the last four-and-a-half years?

Hint--it hasn't been President  Bush.

Yeah, but I had the reference quote--and if I didn't have to go out and spray my mailbox with wasp and hornet killer in the interim, I would have had it before you. :tongue:
